bzr-0.0.2 "black cube" NOT RELEASED YET
5
* Python plugins, automatically loaded from the directories on
6
BZR_PLUGIN_PATH or ~/.bzr.conf/plugins by default.
8
* New 'bzr mkdir' command.
10
* Commit mesage is fetched from an editor if not given on the
11
command line; patch from Torsten Marek.
13
* ``bzr log -m FOO`` displays commits whose message matches regexp
16
* ``bzr add`` with no arguments adds everything under the current directory.
18
* ``bzr mv`` does move or rename depending on its arguments, like
21
* ``bzr missing`` command shows a summary of the differences
22
between two trees. (Merged from John Arbash-Meinel.)
27
* Faster working tree operations.
32
* When exporting to a tarball with ``bzr export --format tgz``, put
33
everything under a top directory rather than dumping it into the
34
current directory. This can be overridden with the ``--root``
35
option. Patch from William Dodé and John Meinel.
37
* New ``bzr upgrade`` command to upgrade the format of a branch,
38
replacing ``bzr check --update``.
40
* Files within store directories are no longer marked readonly on
43
* Changed ``bzr log`` output to a more compact form suggested by
44
John A Meinel. Old format is available with the ``--long`` or
45
``-l`` option, patched by William Dodé.
47
* By default the commit command refuses to record a revision with
48
no changes unless the ``--unchanged`` option is given.
50
* The ``--no-plugins``, ``--profile`` and ``--builtin`` command
51
line options must come before the command name because they
52
affect what commands are available; all other options must come
53
after the command name because their interpretation depends on
56
* ``branch`` and ``clone`` added as aliases for ``branch``.
58
* Default log format is back to the long format; the compact one
59
is available with ``--short``.
64
* Fix bugs in committing only selected files or within a subdirectory.
71
* ``bzr`` with no command now shows help rather than giving an
72
error. Suggested by Michael Ellerman.
74
* ``bzr status`` output format changed, because svn-style output
75
doesn't really match the model of bzr. Now files are grouped by
76
status and can be shown with their IDs. ``bzr status --all``
77
shows all versioned files and unknown files but not ignored files.
79
* ``bzr log`` runs from most-recent to least-recent, the reverse
80
of the previous order. The previous behaviour can be obtained
81
with the ``--forward`` option.
83
* ``bzr inventory`` by default shows only filenames, and also ids
84
if ``--show-ids`` is given, in which case the id is the second
90
* New 'bzr whoami --email' option shows only the email component
91
of the user identification, from Jo Vermeulen.
93
* New ``bzr ignore PATTERN`` command.
95
* Nicer error message for broken pipe, interrupt and similar
96
conditions that don't indicate an internal error.
98
* Add ``.*.sw[nop] .git .*.tmp *,v`` to default ignore patterns.
100
* Per-branch locks keyed on ``.bzr/branch-lock``, available in
101
either read or write mode.
103
* New option ``bzr log --show-ids`` shows revision and file ids.
105
* New usage ``bzr log FILENAME`` shows only revisions that
108
* Changed format for describing changes in ``bzr log -v``.
110
* New option ``bzr commit --file`` to take a message from a file,
111
suggested by LarstiQ.
113
* New syntax ``bzr status [FILE...]`` contributed by Bartosz
114
Oler. File may be in a branch other than the working directory.
116
* ``bzr log`` and ``bzr root`` can be given an http URL instead of
119
* Commands can now be defined by external programs or scripts
120
in a directory on $BZRPATH.
122
* New "stat cache" avoids reading the contents of files if they
123
haven't changed since the previous time.
125
* If the Python interpreter is too old, try to find a better one
126
or give an error. Based on a patch from Fredrik Lundh.
128
* New optional parameter ``bzr info [BRANCH]``.
130
* New form ``bzr commit SELECTED`` to commit only selected files.
132
* New form ``bzr log -r FROM:TO`` shows changes in selected
133
range; contributed by John A Meinel.
135
* New option ``bzr diff --diff-options 'OPTS'`` allows passing
136
options through to an external GNU diff.
138
* New option ``bzr add --no-recurse`` to add a directory but not
141
* ``bzr --version`` now shows more information if bzr is being run
147
* Fixed diff format so that added and removed files will be
148
handled properly by patch. Fix from Lalo Martins.
150
* Various fixes for files whose names contain spaces or other
156
* Converted black-box test suites from Bourne shell into Python;
157
now run using ``./testbzr``. Various structural improvements to
160
* testbzr by default runs the version of bzr found in the same
161
directory as the tests, or the one given as the first parameter.
163
* testbzr also runs the internal tests, so the only command
164
required to check is just ``./testbzr``.
166
* testbzr requires python2.4, but can be used to test bzr running
167
under a different version.
169
* Tests added for many other changes in this release.
174
* Included ElementTree library upgraded to 1.2.6 by Fredrik Lundh.
176
* Refactor command functions into Command objects based on HCT by
179
* Better help messages for many commands.
181
* Expose bzrlib.open_tracefile() to start the tracefile; until
182
this is called trace messages are just discarded.
184
* New internal function find_touching_revisions() and hidden
185
command touching-revisions trace the changes to a given file.
187
* Simpler and faster compare_inventories() function.
189
* bzrlib.open_tracefile() takes a tracefilename parameter.
191
* New AtomicFile class.
193
* New developer commands ``added``, ``modified``.
198
* Cope on Windows on python2.3 by using the weaker random seed.
199
2.4 is now only recommended.
206
* 'bzr diff' optionally takes a list of files to diff. Still a bit
207
basic. Patch from QuantumG.
209
* More default ignore patterns.
211
* New 'bzr log --verbose' shows a list of files changed in the
212
changeset. Patch from Sebastian Cote.
214
* Roll over ~/.bzr.log if it gets too large.
216
* Command abbreviations 'ci', 'st', 'stat', '?' based on a patch
219
* New 'bzr help commands' based on a patch from Denys Duchier.
224
* User email is determined by looking at $BZREMAIL or ~/.bzr.email
225
or $EMAIL. All are decoded by the locale preferred encoding.
226
If none of these are present user@hostname is used. The host's
227
fully-qualified name is not used because that tends to fail when
228
there are DNS problems.
230
* New 'bzr whoami' command instead of username user-email.
235
* Make commit safe for hardlinked bzr trees.
237
* Some Unicode/locale fixes.
239
* Partial workaround for difflib.unified_diff not handling
240
trailing newlines properly.
245
* Allow docstrings for help to be in PEP0257 format. Patch from
248
* More tests in test.sh.
250
* Write profile data to a temporary file not into working
251
directory and delete it when done.
253
* Smaller .bzr.log with process ids.
258
* Fix opening of ~/.bzr.log on Windows. Patch from Andrew
261
* Some improvements in handling paths on Windows, based on a patch
269
* New "directories" internal command lists versioned directories
272
* Can now say "bzr commit --help".
274
* New "rename" command to rename one file to a different name
277
* New "move" command to move one or more files into a different
280
* New "renames" command lists files renamed since base revision.
282
* New cat command contributed by janmar.
286
* .bzr.log is placed in $HOME (not pwd) and is always written in
287
UTF-8. (Probably not a completely good long-term solution, but
292
* Workaround for difflib bug in Python 2.3 that causes an
293
exception when comparing empty files. Reported by Erik Toubro
298
* Refactored inventory storage to insert a root entry at the top.
302
* Start of shell-based black-box testing in test.sh.
309
* Win32 fixes from Steve Brown.
